They don't list the approach and departure angles! But if you fitted a personal snorkel, the wading depth is about 6 feet  :lol:

AHHH BMX bike now theres some memories!

You may not beleive this but....

I used to have in the mid 80s a Kuwahara laser lite BMX bike (first one in the uk) which I raced all over the UK - got to no.9 in the country in my age group :shock:  

I was fit then!

 :wink:

im glad the young one can help  :lol:  :lol:  :lol: there are more pictures in my gallery  :lol:  the amount of people have come up to me and asked me what is mud-club and i told them it is a free internet based 4x4 club and they ask me why i have it on my bike, so i just say 1) because i am a member 2) because i want to advertise it.

soon i will have a big muddyweb sticker to advertise tims buisness!!  :lol:  :lol: then i will stick them in my gallery  :lol:

You probably don't want your old bike back now, but I hope you get more effort from the Police than we have.  My 14 year old son had his bike stolen while doing his paper round last week.  The Police aren't in the slightest bit interested, even though we know who has the bike!  Maybe they'll take more interest when I tell them I'm going to recover it myself.

the police werent interested at all, just gave me a reference number and thats it.

if my bike had been anywhere other than my house it wouldnt have been insured.

Same here when my mountain bike got nicked 5 mins before I left college the police wasn’t interested 1 little bit, just the same they gave me a reference  number and that’s it.  :( I had a big lock through my bike and they still managed to cut through it  :?

Sorry to hear you're old one got nicked but congrats on getting a result out of an insurance company  :lol:  The new bike looks really cool but will the brake calipers fit around the BFG muds?  :lol:
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If it ain't dirty, do something about it!!

Yeah, I know it's not white and it's not a 90 but my last one was :-)
